Happy 400th birthday, KJV!The greatest point I get from the article (which is quite well done, and easily read at any level of reading comprehension or Scripture knowledge) is that a great debt is owed to the translators of the King James Bible, for completing the best translation to that time. And it's a good point. It doesn't take away from the fact that newer translations, based on better knowledge of the original languages and more comparative copies and fragments, are superior. The most interesting thing is that he states that only the original manuscripts (autographs) are inerrant and not the translations. I can think of a number of KJV adherents who would disagree with him!
